oduct Information Guide.

OTICE: If your computer has an expansion card installed (such as a modem card), connect the

propriate cable to the card, not to the connector on the back panel.

OTICE: To help allow the computer to maintain proper operating temperature, ensure that you do not

ace the computer too close to a wall or other storage compartment that might prevent air circulation

2 Connect the modem or network cable.

Insert the network cable, not the telephone line, into the network connector. If you have an optional modem, connect the telephone line to the modem.Quick Reference Guide

NOTICE: Do not connect a modem cable to the network adapter connector. Voltage from telephone

communications can cause damage to the network adapter.

3 Connect the monitor.

Align and gently insert the monitor cable to avoid bending connector pins. Tighten the thumbscrews on the cable connectors.

NOTE: Some monitors have the video connector underneath the back of the screen. See the

documentation that came with your monitor for its connector locations.

4 Connect the speakers.

5 Connect power cables to the computer, monitor, and devices and connect the other ends of the power cables to electrical outlets.

6 Verify that the voltage selection switch is set correctly for your location.

Your computer has a manual voltage-selection switch. Computers with a voltage selection switch on the back panel must be manually set to operate at the correct operating voltage.

NOTICE: To help avoid damaging a computer with a manual voltage-selection switch, set the switch for

the voltage that most closely matches the AC power available in your location.

NOTICE: In Japan, the voltage selection switch must be set to the 115-V position even though the AC

power available in Japan is 100 V.

NOTE: Before you install any devices or software that did not ship with your computer, read the

documentation that came with the device or software, or contact the vendor to verify that the device or

software is compatible with your computer and operating system.

NOTE: Your computer may vary slightly from the following illustrations.

Diagnostic Lights


Product Information Guide.Quick Reference Guide

To help you troubleshoot a problem, your computer has four lights labeled "1," "2," "3," and "4" on the front or back panel. The lights can be "off" or green. When the computer starts normally, the patterns or codes on the lights change as the boot process completes. When the computer starts normally, the patterns or codes on the lights change as the boot process completes. If the POST portion of system boot completes successfully, all four lights display solid green for a short time, and then turn off. If the computer malfunctions during the POST process, the pattern displayed on the LEDs may help identify where in the process the computer halted. If the computer malfunctions after a successful POST, the diagnostic lights do not indicate the cause of the problem.

NOTE: The orientation of the diagnostic lights may vary depending on the system type. The diagnostic

lights can appear either vertical or horizontal.

Light Pattern Problem Description Suggested Resolution

The computer is in a normal "off" condition, or a possible pre-BIOS failure has occurred.

The diagnostic lights are not lit after the computer successfully boots to the operating system.

Plug the computer into a working electrical outlet and press the power button.

A possible BIOS failure has occurred; the computer is in the recovery mode.

Run the BIOS Recovery utility, wait for recovery completion, and then restart the computer.

A possible processor failure has occurred. Reinstall the processor and restart the computer. For information on reinstalling the processor, see your online Users Guide.

Memory modules are detected, but a memory failure has occurred.

If you have one memory module installed, reinstall it and restart the

computer. For information on reinstalling memory modules, see your online Users Guide.

If you have two or more memory modules installed, remove the modules, reinstall one module, and then restart the computer. If the computer starts normally, reinstall an additional module. Continue until you have identified a faulty module or reinstalled all modules without error.

If available, install properly working memory of the same type into your computer.

If the problem persists, contact Dell. For information on contacting Dell, see your online Users Guide.

A possible graphics card failure has occurred.

If the computer has a graphics card, remove the card, reinstall it, and then restart the computer.

If the problem still exists, install a graphics card that you know works and restart the computer.

If the problem persists or the computer has integrated graphics, contact Dell. For information on contacting Dell, see your online Users Guide.

A possible floppy or hard drive failure has occurred.

Reseat all power and data cables and restart the computer.

Reinstalling Microsoft Windows XP

Before You Begin

If you are considering reinstalling the Windows XP operating system to correct a problem with a newly installed driver, first try using Windows XP Device Driver Rollback. If Device Driver Rollback does not resolve the problem, then use System Restore (see page 40) to return your operating system to the operating state it was in before you installed the new device driver.

NOTE: The Drivers and Utilities CD contains drivers that were installed during assembly of the computer.

Use the Drivers and Utilities CD to load any required drivers, including the drivers required if your

computer has a RAID controller.

Reinstalling Windows XP

NOTICE: You must use Windows XP Service Pack 1 or later when you reinstall Windows XP.

NOTICE: Before performing the installation, back up all data files on your primary hard drive. For

conventional hard drive configurations, the primary hard drive is the first drive detected by the computer.

To reinstall Windows XP, you need the following items:

Dell Operating System CD

Dell Drivers and Utilities CD

To reinstall Windows XP, perform all the steps in the following sections in the order in which they are listed.

The reinstallation process can take 1 to 2 hours to complete. After you reinstall the operating system, you must also reinstall the device drivers, virus protection program, and other software.

NOTICE: The Operating System CD provides options for reinstalling Windows XP. The options can

overwrite files and possibly affect programs installed on your hard drive. Therefore, do not reinstall

Windows XP unless a Dell technical support representative instructs you to do so.

NOTICE: To prevent conflicts with Windows XP, disable any virus protection software installed on your

computer before you reinstall Windows XP. See the documentation that came with the software for

instructions.
